The Gift From Death

Chapter 6:Shadow and misty

4th, August, 1998...

After lunch everyone went outside for some fresh air.

"Hey Gin?" Harry asked his girlfriend once everyone had sat down in a circle on conjured chairs.

"Yes Harry?" she replied.

"You know when Death made us Lycans what did you feel? I felt as though there was fire running through my veins then it turned to ice then fire again before going back to normal." he explained.

"Hmm... I got similar, I got fire then ice but I never had fire again." she said.

"Hmm, must be the change to your bodies." Hermione commented, they nodded thinking she was probably right.

"Why don't you try out your form's and see what it feel's like to change." Minerva commented. "If it's supposed to be like the animagius transformation just concentrate on changing into your form."

They did and within a minuite two beautiful wolves were standing where Harry and Ginny were.

"Oh my." Andy said as those who hadn't seen them in wolf form before looked shocked.

"You two are even bigger than Moony is." Sirius said, making James nod and Remus glare at him.

The black wolf, Harry, made an odd noise that would equal to a snort he then looked at the dark red wolf that was Ginny and nudged her with his shoulder.

Ginny huffed and nudged him back. Most of the people around the circle looked amused. Harry then took a few unsteady steps forward and fell landing on his side, giving out a startled yelp of surprise.

"You'll get used to it trust me." said Sirius going over to Harry and ruffling his ears. Harry nodded and took a few more unsteady steps forwards and fell again.

This time it was Ginny who made a sound suspiciously like a snort.

Harry changed back, "You try walking on four legs then." he said moodily. Ginny did and only stumbled once before she got more confident and walked a bit more steadily. Harry went back to wolf form and tried again, this time he didn't fall, but he still stumbled a few times.

"It can be a little tricky on four legs I remember when Padfoot did his change the first time I think it took him almost two days to stop falling over every seccond step." Remus chuckled, Sirius glared at him.

"He's right Paddy, but remember it took me a week to be steady on four legs because of the hooves." James reminded his friend.

Sirius sighed and nodded dejectedly, "I know but it was tricky, especialy on the wooden floor in the dorm, it was slippy." he said.

"If it helps I was like that for a few hours after I completed the tranformation." Minerva said. "It took me a while to get used to being a cat." she admitted just as the two wolves got their footing and started running around the circle making everyone smile, "Looks like they've got it then."

The two wolves stopped suddenly and looked at each other then changed back.

"Ginny did I just hear your voice inside my head?" Harry asked.

"I think so, I think I heard you too." she replied. "Hold on." she frowned. Can you hear me? she thought towards Harry. Harry jumped and nodded.
